  2. Back to back to back?!

    You bet.

    I wrote a poem at like 10:45 last night and it turned out really good even tho I was dead from swimming all day.

    I present,

    Pebbles

    Spoiler

    Pebbles

     
    I
    I am the collector of pebbles.
     
    I tread across the smooth,
    Damp sand,
    Crouching,
    Picking up the pebbles.
     
    Some people,
    They go after the beautiful,
    Perfect,
    Seashells.
    The picturesque,
    The flawless.
     
    That’s not me.
     
    I want the pebbles.
    Every one different,
    Every one beautiful in
    Its uniqueness.
     
    Each has its beautiful scars,
    Marks of a journey,
    Of suffering,
    But it makes them no
    Less valuable.
    No less beautiful.
     
    I pick them up,
    I have a plan for each one,
    To help them be seen.
     
    Their stories are beautiful,
    They deserve to be shared.
     
    I am the traveler,
    Dancing, plodding, limping
    Across the sky,
    Across countless stories.
    A star.
     
    I am a collector of stories.
    Each one so beautiful,
    Part of another journey.
     
    I don’t want perfection.
    I want you.
    I want your story the way
    You
    Tell it to me.
     
    I want you to be seen.
    I need more stories.
    A collector’s job
    Is never complete.
     
    So let me gather you,
    Your pieces,
    Broken, scarred,
    Pocked by suffering,
    Let me hold you.
    You are still
    Beautiful.
     
    It just takes the right kind
    Of person
    To see the beauty
    In a
    Pebble.
     
    Let me hear your
    Story.
    Let me tell you
    About your beauty.
    You are irreplaceable.
     
    I don’t need
    Your name, or face.
    But will you share
    This with me?
     
    Tell me a story.
     
    Share another pebble.

    Okay, sad news time.

    TW: depressing

    Spoiler

    So... my parents have been living separately for the last 16 months-ish, but I've still been seeing my dad a lot, and he's still been at my house almost every day, and sleeping overnight on the couch a bunch.

    That... all changed today.

    My dad is moving into an apartment.

    He's not going to be home anymore.

    They said at least four months, but maybe longer.

    That he might be back by October...

    They're not divorced.

    They say they don't believe in divorce.

    But...

    I feel like... the ground dropped from underneath me... again.

     

     

    Veil only got 9 minutes on her phone today...

    I got 57 words from her today.

    I... miss her so much.

    I still don't have an appetite. 

    I feel like giving up.

    I had multiple mental breakdowns today...

    *sighs*

    I'm just... so done.

    I wanna go home, but nowhere feels like home...

    Except maybe Veil's or Shallan and Radiant's house...

    But they're all gone until Monday...

     

    I don't know what to do with myself anymore...

    So, there's all the depressing stuff.

    Sorry bout that.

  12. My phone case got a new sticker!!!

    Previously it was a chibi-style Maddison from Hamilton, and now we have:

    Spoiler

    image0(2).jpeg.257cc388e779371488119106f61ca57d.jpeg

    TA-DA!!

    Also, yes, I know the case is scratched and breaking and I need a new one, but I keep spending the tiny bits of money I find/earn on art supplies instead. ;-;

    Also!!!

    Sticker hack:

    Spoiler

    If you wipe the surface with an alcohol wipe, then put the sticker on, smooth it on the surface, and apply lots of pressure, it works pretty good.

    BUT-

    if you add a layer of clear nail polish over the whole thing and let it dry, it stays on so much longer!!! and if the sticker starts to peel off after a while and you aren't ready to change it (let's be honest, guys, Etsy stickers are expensive) you can add another coat and it'll help stretch the life of the sticker out!!

    You just have to use some nail polish remover over the sticker before you can get it off.

    It also might have negative side effects with whatever surface you're stickering, so be careful 😅

    Anyway!

    Next in line (after we say goodbye to the sisters) for the phone case is chibi-style Aaron Burr (also from Hamilton-)

    :D 

    Also

    Spoiler

    I'm trying to post something positive so that I have an excuse to spill everything else later.

    Don't read my next few unless you're ready for sadness/depression/whatever else

    I'll TW them.

      Yeah, well, you could buy a new one.

      If you didn't spend every penny on nerd stuff.

      :D 

  13. I have no idea who would see this, but I really need someone to talk to.

    i have 20-25 minutes.

    if anyone wants to pm me, it'd be really appreciated.

      sticky I'm sorry I didn't see his earlier but if you still want to talk I can shoot you a PM?

      I do have work in about 30 minutes but I can text you still

      if you need my number for easier communication I can give it to you

  14. *sighs*

    You know...

    This is the first day that I haven't called Veil in... like... months. 

    She's away for the next three days (ish)

    I woke up at 5:30 and walked over to say goodbye this morning.

    She'll have limited access to her phone, and therefore, to me.

    We're talking very limited.

    As in, I got to text her for twelve minutes before her phone was collected again.

    I have officially been awake and going for 16 hours and 30 minutes.

    I haven't really gotten anything done, including basic self-care, like eating and drinking.

    I had work to do this morning, but I, instead, flopped in the middle of the floor and lay there for an hour because I was too depressed to move.

    I missed guitar and uke practice, fricked up art, almost fell asleep during math, upset everyone, and got my phone taken for 8 hours this morning.

    I have forced down emotions and tears all day, and now I'm too numb to care.

    I have a headache, I'm dizzy, I have no appetite...

    Not thirsty... 

    I feel like a zombie.

    A really lonely and depressed one.

    I just want to curl up in someone's arms and cry...

    I think having physical touch as your primary love language is the worst one.

    I just... feel so alone...

    thanks for reading my emotional dump

    assuming at least 1 person did.

  16. Therapist: What do we do when we are sad?

    Me: Add to cart?

    Therapist: No.

     

    I don't struggle with depression.
    Like, at this point I have it down.
    I'm good at depression.

     

    *feels myself disassociating and staring off into space*
    *shifts my eyes to try and snap out of it*
    *starts staring into space in the new direction*

     

    Me: I'm depressed.
    Therapist: They're depressed.
    Doctor: They're depressed. 
    My parents: Are they, though?

    Tiny

    Spoiler

    Tiny

     
    Pull on her oversized
    Sweatshirt,
    Pull up the hood.
     
    Turn out the light,
    Slip under the blanket,
     
    Grab my pillow and hold it
    Tightly,
    Pretending…
     
    That I’m not so
    Alone.
     
    Hiding in the dark,
    Finally letting
    Everything out.
     
    A crying, shivering
    Mess.
     
    Dying to have someone
    With me,
     
    Yet still so alone.
     
    Wishing I was
    That innocent child
    Again.
     
    Cared for and held,
    Tiny,
    Cradled in someone’s
    Arms.
     
    Wishing I wasn’t so needy.
    So clingy.
     
    Wishing I was smaller.
     
    Smaller and younger,
    Held,
    Safe…
     
    Reality is different.
     
    Reality is
    Cold,
    Cruel,
    Lonely…
     
    I can’t shove my feelings
    Away anymore.
     
    As much as I want to,
    I can’t be who I want.
     
    That’s not reality.
     
    I feel so cold.
    So scared and alone.
    Uncomforted.
     
    Who knew loneliness
    Could physically hurt?
     
    The empty ache in my
    Chest,
    The tears burning in
    My eyes.
     
    So alone,
    So scared,
    Hurting.
     
    Spiraling as the
    Night gets longer,
    Darker and colder.
     
    I’m a stranger to my
    Own family.
     
    I feel like a ghost with
    My friends.
     
    Drifting
    Unsure
    Invisible, maybe?
     
    But emotionally tiny.
     
    Physically…
    Tallest and strongest…
     
    The most broken,
    But good at faking
    Strength.
     
    So fragile,
    So small,
    Scared of everything.
     
    But tough on the outside.
    An actor.
     
    A really good one.
     
    My stage makeup is
    So thick and heavy.
     
    The opposite of
    What I want
    In myself.
